On February 27, 2002, the Sabarmati Express caught fire near Godhra railway station. Thousands of Hindu pilgrims were returning from Ayodhya. It was later reported that a mob from the Muslim community attacked the train, which became the root cause of the Gujarat riots.
A movie starring Vikrant Massey, Rashi Khanna, and Ridhi Dogra is coming soon. Its trailer was launched just a few hours ago. It deals with the issues of that time, exploring how the media was hijacked after the incident, with prominent figures in politics playing key roles in the ensuing riots.
The trailer covers the sheer intensity with which the incident occurred, and its treatment suggests that this will not be another nonsensical propaganda film, but a rational filmmaking endeavor grounded in facts and figures.
It hints at truths that nobody dared to show for 22 years. The trailer engages its audience with powerful storytelling and leaves a significant impact on its viewers. Produced by Balaji Motion Pictures, “The Sabarmati Report” will release on May 3, 2024. Let us know your thoughts on it.
